Hello! I'm in the process of upgrading our HBase 94 codebase to HBase 98. The 
org.apache.hadoop.hbase.filter.Filter class now has a field 
protected boolean reversed; which seems to, from my reading of the code that 
touches it, be a transient field set only when the Scan using the filter is 
itself reversed. It doesn't seem like it's supposed to be 
serialized/deserialized with the rest of the filter. However it is not marked 
transient, which trips up our serialization unittests... Is my reading wrong 
and this field should get serialized (despite being protected in a abstract 
base class) or should this field actually be transient?

Thanks in advance
